Equinix, Inc. has been chosen by application hosting and infrastructure service provider i3D.net to support its global gaming platform. Acquired by one of the world's largest game publishers, Ubisoft, i3D.net provides a global low-latency network and has partnered with Equinix to gain proximity to its end users following an uptick in activity. The gaming market is experiencing solid growth and is forecast to increase from $42.2 billion in 2020 to $46.7 billion in 2025. In addition to organic worldwide expansion, i3D.net has seen its gaming business grow significantly, with capacity needs doubling. With an uptick in usage and global demand for a highly immersive and consistent end-user experience, as well as new game launches, e-sports events and popularity spikes of a particular game, the need for high-speed connectivity to sync games and perform deployment tests increased. i3D.net moved its gaming platform to Platform Equinix®—integrating into 38 Equinix International Business Exchange™ (IBX®) data centers across the Americas, Asia-Pacific and Europe—to provide the low-latency connectivity necessary to ensure a seamless gaming experience. Widespread cloud adoption and access have changed the way video and mobile games are developed, delivered and played. By rearchitecting its supporting digital infrastructure accordingly, i3D.net can offer scalability and an instant immersive gaming experience, regardless of location.
